I have a Pixel 7, stock Android 14. It is my only phone and I love the stock system. But I am trying to gradually ditch Google and its services, for reasons well-known in this community and Lemmy in general. How much would I gain/lose using a custom ROM with/without GApps?

Update: Switched to GrapheneOS, no regrets :)

    It’s good to know, thank you. Is GPay completely out of limits on Calyx (or any ROM in general)?

      I believe so, yes. From my understanding, google blocks custom roms from being able to use the service.

      I’ve heard before that with root you can spoof it, but its not easy or convenient.
